Dr. Derek Graff
In my practice, we treat people the way we want to be treated, with respect and compassion. I see every patient at every appointment because I know our patients are paying for my time and expertise. I enjoy getting to know my patients personally, discovering their needs, and exceeding their expectations, both in treatment and in customer service.
Education and Continuing Education
I was accepted into dental school early and received my Bachelor’s degree from Nova Southeastern University. My Orthodontic Residency was attained at the University of Colorado.
Although my formal education is complete, I regularly complete continuing dental and orthodontic education in order to sharpen my skills and to stay abreast of the latest methods and technologies. As part of my continuing education, I am actively involved with many local and national professional organizations. I wish to offer my patients every advantage in treatment to ensure not only a beautiful and lasting smile, …but also a comfortable and efficient experience from beginning to end.
Love Of Profession
Transforming someone’s smile is truly a life-altering process, and I am honored to have this ability and to be able to help the people of our community. One of the best parts of my job is simply getting to know my patients and their families. I love being part of their lives during treatment, and I want to provide a warm, welcoming atmosphere for them to visit.
There is no better feeling than to turn a patient's life around through orthodontics. Oftentimes, patients come in lacking confidence and afraid to smile. They often gain self-esteem throughout treatment, and by the end, they are proud to show off their beautiful smiles! Seeing this transformation is the most rewarding part of my job, and it makes me proud to be an orthodontist.
The staff in my office is integral to our wonderful reputation. My team genuinely cares about our patients and treats people of all ages with equal respect. They love to laugh and smile and help put our patients at ease. Our patients love coming to see us, chatting with the team, and having a good time here. We truly care about you and your family, and it shows!
Family Life
I grew up in St. George, UT, and I love living in Farmington. My greatest love is my family, and I spend as much time with them as I can. My beautiful wife, Kristy, and I have a son named Shandon, and four daughters named Jacei, Kennedy, Sydney, and Madison. We love spending time outdoors, and I especially enjoy hunting, fly-fishing, camping, and hiking. In addition, I am a sports enthusiast, watching most sports and following sports statistics.
I also have a deep religious conviction and spend a great deal of my free time serving and participating in church. I teach lessons, plan and participate in service projects, and make weekly visits to those who are in need of an uplifting visit or help with a project.
